I quoted this last week, but it goes very well with the events we are celebrating this weekend:
“The messiah has consented to a way of limitation, of embodiment that can be bound, injured and killed as the way to define ‘the man.’
…
“When we see or experience limitation, even impairment, we should not think, ‘behold, the monster,’ but rather ‘behold, the man’ (John 19:5). The incarnation of Christ and his passion is the ‘norm,’ not anything defined by the cult of normalcy.” (Susan Windley-Daous, The Theology of the Body, Extended
As I’m sure you’ve noticed, posting has been incredibly light here this week. I’ve been slowly making the transition to editor-in-chief over at Catholic Lane and trying to keep up with all the information my predecessor has been passing along to me. Hope you’re hanging in there with me.
Wishing you all abundant blessings this Holy season.
